[D] I was traveling through the country, golden sunset at my back, [G] and when night [A] time overtook
me, I found a place to [D] hang my hat.
I walked in through the front door, the smell of [G] cigarettes and paint.
That's when I first [A] set my eyes on [A] the yellow rose [D] of Santa Fe.
She was dancing [G] with no music, [A] she was floating [D] in the air, and all the while that [G] precious
flower stayed between her [A] strands of hair.
[A] I asked if she'd ever [D] been lonely, she said, I've never [G] been at all.
So she took me [A] warm and weary, led me drifting [D] down the hall.
She read me like the front page, she loved me [G] like a stone, though she fixed me [A] with
her cold gaze.
I've never seen a [D] smile so warm.
In the morning she was [G] nowhere, [A] as the moon [D] is in the day.
The only souvenir [G] she left me, [A] the yellow rose [D] of Santa Fe.
